Amazon Games is changing guilds in New World because large groups with multiple companies controlled entire servers

Last minute The world stood up after Putins decision in

In the MMORPG New World, shell companies caused frustration among the players. Now Amazon Games is stepping in.

What is Amazon Games changing? As Amazon Games announced in a letter from the developers on December 1st, the New World company system is to receive a change.

Comparable to guilds in other games, companies are a requirement to participate in the MMORPG’s PvP wars.

Probably the most important adjustment is an increase in the cooldown of company changes and a restriction on the war player list. This is to prevent multiple companies being controlled by the same players.

In addition, the possibility should be created to create more recipes. In addition, there should be significantly lower contribution requirements for city projects (via newworld.com).

5 tips if you want to start with New World in 2022

Why is there a cooldown change? By joining a Company, players in New World can declare war and lay siege to territories. This brings benefits to players such as a discount on fast travel or income from taxes. As a result, it’s very frustrating when most of the areas are run by the same players.

As early as May 2022, the reddit user IYELLVALHALLA reported that his server had a problem with “shell companies”. Shell companies usually only exist on paper and are supposed to fulfill an ominous purpose. It’s similar in New World, as IYELLVALHALLA explains:

“That is: a company making other small companies of 5 members or so so they can hold multiple areas and have different siege times. So no other company can split their forces to even stand a chance of capturing those areas (via reddit).”

“They don’t just fight the wars, they run the whole server”

Why are letterbox companies a problem? As can be seen from the reddit post, there are said to be some large guilds in New World, which set up other small companies and assign players to lead them.

With these smaller companies, the large groups own numerous territories on a server and make sure not to lose them either. However, companies don’t care about the territories and on top of that they deprive other players of the possibility of owning a territory.

The reddit user EasternWolverine348 also described the resulting problem on his server in May with the following words:

They not only run the wars, but the whole server. On my server, 2 to 3 large companies own everything under ‘letterbox companies’. […] These companies don’t care about invasion, don’t pay taxes, don’t improve the cities, only the fortress. They also make everything on the market super expensive by buying everything up and giving it back for a lot more.

New World on the right track: The change in the cooldown times of the companies and the list of war players shows what has already been indicated in the past few weeks: New World is on the right track at the end of the year.

Amazon Games is increasingly responding to player criticism and requests. In particular, the much-requested implementation of the Fresh Start server caused an upswing in the number of players.
